Quite Certain Col. Tomlinson is a Ilepnljlican. Sapi Louian t nave nun Hudson, He Says. John I-I irtin, United State3 senator from Kausas, 13 at home again. "Yes. I ana a Democrat," said Senator Martin, in answer to a question from a Stat Journal reporter this morning. "I will le a candidate for re-election to the senate, Mil will make as many speeches in the state during the cam paign as I can, although on account of illnejs of my wife, who has been sick in bed fur three months, and i8 likely to be no better soon, I can't make a thorough canvass of tha state aa I have done in suin carnpaig oa." You will support the Overmyer ticket, will you?'' "Ye-?. I suppose I will; I am a Demo crat, although no meetings have been ar ranged for me yet" "What do you favor in the election of members of the legislature?" "I believe in leaving- this matter en tirely with the several counties, Where 14 0 v V A 0 EC-I.". JOTTN MARTIN. th? Democrats and the Populists can combine and elect a member of the leg-i-i t!i r and thereby defeat a Republi can. 1 tLiuk i. is right that they should ;o it. I believe they should defeat the Republicans whenever and wherever t'aer ca'.i." When atked to give an opinion on the loc-tl Democratic tight between the Eu gen Hagan and Frank Thomas fac tions, Senatcr Martin assumed a sur prised look aad tsaid: "t didn't know tuero was any trouble in local circles. Of course I knew there was nonie troubla in the county conven tion when da. elates were elected to the state convection, but 1 supposed that was all straightened out. 1 shall not bother myself about local affairs. If 1 make a campaign in the state it will be all that can Le expected of me." Senator Jlt.rtin, when informed that the local Democracy had on Saturday last nominated a county ticket, inquired about the nominees. When the re Dorter informed him that Col. W. I. Tcmlinson had been nominat ed for probate judge, he said: "Thai's a funny nomiu itbn to make, isn't it? I thought Toiclinson was a Republican. He was a Republican two years ago, and not only supported the Republican state ticket and vote I for it, but he voted for the Republican National ticket I thought he had gone back into tho Re publican i ar.y to stay." "Col. Tomlinson carries the Overmyer state ticket and tho county ticket nomi nated Saturday, at the head of his edito rial column in his paper, the Topeka Democrat," suggested the reporter. "That doof n't make any difference; the way he votes is what counts. I guess he surely must be a Republican. That's a very strange ticket to nominate to solidi fy tat Dsiuocratie voters of the county, isn't it?" "Charley Holliday was nominated for e'erk of the court aad Alike Heery for oonnty commissioner; they are both good Democrats are they not?" queried the reporter. "Oh ye; Charley Holliday is a good Democrat utd Mie Heery too. I wish Mi a Heery could be elected. Ho would make a sple-idid commissioner. Yes, Alike is a good Democrat, but I would like to know how Tomlinson is expected to ilidify tie Democracy of the county." "V, hat do you think of the withdrawal of Jeff. Hudson?" "1 don't know what to think about it It was a surprise to me, when I saw the announcement in the papers Jeff surely would have been re-elected. It is true there is another Democratic candidate in that district, that man Sapp, but I don't believe he would have drawn a tfaovisand votes away from Hudson. Ilu.lson did cot say anything to me about retiring and it wa? a very great surprise to ine." JOHN" MAItTlN" CAN'T GO BACK. Senator Fefter Sa Senator Martin Can't Ke Ke-elected. Senator PefTer, in speaking of the probable ro-eleetion of Senator John .Martin, said: "I guess John will not go bac ttottie senate. His course has not been satisfactory to our people, and he will be succeeded by a straight Populist. He made a jreat mistake when he went into the seaat.3 Democratic caucus. The Populists expected that he would take a diCerent stad, and have been greatly disappoint i in his action. When he arrived at Washington I betrged of him not to go into that cancus,' but he said that he cou d do nothing else; that he was a Democrat and must act with his party assjc:atea. I tried to convince him that he would better hold aloof from the caucus, and I guosa now he sees his mis take. Of course had he remained out of the caucus, he W5u!d have been given no patronage, but all the patronage he has dispensed has dona him no good. On the contrary it has ben a stumbling block in his way, and it w.ll continue to be until the t-nd of bis term. Had he identified himsa-lf with the Populists, as we had a right to expec: he would, he would now have a claim upon the party and might consistently as'c us to re-elect him. But hs did not, an i thstt settled his fate so far aa our party is concerned." GERMANS :il ST CONFORM. Supreme Chancellor of the K. l."a On tlie New Rules. New York, Sept. 12. Supreme Chan cellor W. B. Ritchie of the supreme lodge, K. of P., when questioned regard ing the action of that body ia interdic ting the use of the German ritual and adopting a resolution whereby saloon keepers and bar-tenders were prohibited from becoming members of the order, said: "The supreme lodge, of which I am at the head, has the power to decide what ritual shall be made, in which language it shall bo written, or whether any ritual shall be used at all. We have decided that in America the language of the greatest number of our people shall be used in the ritual, and tnat is the Dng lib. This was the decision of the su preme lodge, and by that I mean to stand. If we were to organize a lodge in France, we would naturally like to have the ritual in French. But in America it ia to be in English. "I regret very much that our German friends have taken offeaje at our de cision, but they cannot help it. I have many friends among Germans and in deed, am president of one German soci ety, end it pains me to learn of their withdrawal. "Of tho ritual regarding saloon keep ers and bar-tenders, I wis a to say it reads, '.No saloon keeper, bar-tender, or profes sional gambler shall be eligible to mem bership in this order.'"

BETTER SETTLE The Decker, Mullins and Berry Damage Suit. Heavy Taxpayers Seem to Agree on That Point. THEY SPEAK CLEARLY. The Judiciary Committee Meets Tonisrht to Act. The Members "Willing to. Con sider a Fair Proposition. The men who pay the taxes In Tope ka are ia favor of a settlement of the Decker, Mullins and Berry sewer case. A Journal reporter spent some time in questioning men who have the interests of the city at heart, and did not find one who is in favor of appealing the case. Here are some of the opinions expressed: P. L Bonebrake, president of the Cen tral National bank: "I am in favor of a compromise settlement of the judgment The city owes a debt, and the best thiug is to settle it and get it out of the way. We might have made a Hettlement once for $40,000, but we did not do it, and now we will have do the best we can." T. J. Kellam, president of the Mer chants' National bank "By all means the council should decide to settle it. It has been demonstrated by three trials that the city is responsible and the judg ment should be paid. There is no ques tion about the equity of the claim against the city. I do not pretend to give an opdnion about the amount, but it should be settled as soon as possible and save the city any further expense." Major Wm. Sims, president of the First National bank "I have been of the opinion for some time that the interests of the city would be promoted by an ad justment of the claim. When an indi vidual or a company obtains a judgment against a city, without going into the right or wrong of the que-tion, it is always best to settle it as speedily as possible. Delays are expensive and the city gener ally fails in the end." R. M. Gage, treasurer of the Topeka City Railway company "I think by all means the judgment should be settled. Pending litigation is always damaging to the credit of any city. The matter of this suit has already attracted some at tention in quarters outside of the state where, without an investigation of the merits of the case, it is classed as another effort of a Kansas town to repudiate its .obligations. We cannot, alfurd to; ac quire a reputation as litigants aud in th!1) c"se 1 think it is a general opinion among tax payers that no verdict for a smaller amount will ever be rendered, while much fear has been expressed that another verdict might be for $150,000." Guilford Dudley, banker "I think it will be business to adjust the matter. Th city should pay what it owes as soon aa possible. I do not know whether the judgment is correct or not, but the city ought to be able to make some satisfac tory agreement with those who hold the judgment as to the amount I would like to see it fixed up." JIDICIAKY COMMITTEE MEETS. The Councilmen Intrusted With the Mat ter to Hold a. Session. The committee on judiciary of the city council. City Attorney Tillotson aud P. G. Noel, financial agent of the city, meet tonight to discuss the question of appeal ing the Decker, Mullins Berry sewer case. The members of the committee are: Councilmen Bradford, of the Third ward; Ilolman, of the First; Burgess, of the Fourth and Fulton of the Fifth. Gen. Bradford, who is chairman of the committee, is not in the city, and will not meet with the committee. All the councilmen in the committee are in favor of settling the judgment rather than appealing the case to the su preme court, but none are in favor of paying the full amount of the judgment The probabilities are that the committee will agree upon a compromise, which will be submitted to the holders of the judgment It is the general opinion of the whole council that the claims of the material men should be paid, and tho compromise would not apply to these claims. Councilman Fulton says that if a set tlement at the contract price can be made he is in favor of adjusting the judgment, Ho saya this would reduce the judgment about $ia,000, which would bring the amount down to $55,000. Councilman Ilolman says he favors a settlement if it can be secured on a satis factory basis but if this can not be secured he favors an appeal. Councilman Burgess also favors a set tlement if a compromise can be secured. Mr. Tillotson is in favor of appealing the case. The First to Pile. The nomination papers of tf. M. Gar denhire, candidate for Representative in the 37th district, were filed in the county clerk's office today. Mr. Gardenhire is the first candidate of any party to file his papers in this campaign.

I Tlie Government Trying Fasten on Debs to The Writing of Certain A. E. U. Telegrams. THIRTEEN WITNESSES Give Their Testimony in the United States Court. Chicago, Sept. 12. In the Debs case yesterday the first witness called was General Superintendent Dunlap of the Rock Island railroad. Mr. Dud lap gave an exhaustive history of tha strike as it affected his road. Throughout the day the attorneys for the defense continued to object to th evidence introduced by the gov ernment, and for some unknown rea eod Judge Woods sustained them much oftener than lie did during the earlier I days of the trial. In all thirteen wit nesses testified for the government I during the day, most of the evidence adduced dealing with the scenes of violence in and about the city during the strike. J.N. Scales, general superintendent of the Mobile and Ohio railroad, identified the telegraphic correspond ence which he had with Debs regard ing the raising of the boycott on his road. He had wired Debs in the t rst place, telling him that the Mobile and Ohio road ran Pullman cars and requesting him to do what lay in his power to prevent the strike. The next telegram bore the name of Debs and asked if the Mobile and Ohio road belonged to the General Managers' association. Ubou Mr. Scales' assurance by wire that it did not, a telegram was sent asking Mr. Scales to call on Dwyer, the local representative of the American KiiL way Union, and make arrangements with him regarding the calling off of the strike. This, Mr. Scales testi fied, he did, and read tho agreement which he had with Dwyer. Tha tele grams were all placed in evidence. One of the attorneys for the govern ment said that if the telegrams could be positively traced to Debs in this case, his directing hand in the strike would be positively established. Toward the close of the afternoon the counsel for the governtnent ijot down to the actual work of connect ing Mr. Debs and his associates witli the lawlessness by introducing the telegraph messenger boys who de livered various telegrams previously put in evidence at the ollice of the American Railway union. In all but three cases the messages were either signed by the doorkeeper or Mr. Benedict, the typewriter. In three cases one of the messenger boys &aid he had delivered telegrams to Mr. Debs personally, and he had receipted for them. The delivery sheet was not in evidence, however, but it will be presented to-day. The feature of the day's proceed ings was a discussion brought about by Attorney Gregory, in which he scored the General Managers' associ ation, fie said: "We cuu get the witnesses to testify and the court will admit the evidence. I think we can show that this General Managers' association was preparing to reduce the wages of the employes on tha roads which its members represented. They were seeking to do this by a combination against labor and this was the real cause of the strike. From one end of the country to the other we have heard people denounc ing this sympathetic strike. Yet Judge Cooley, in his address to ttie American Bar association. says that no board of arbitration and I add that no injunction can cone pel men to work if they -do not want to. Js'ow these employes had a right to quit work. No injunction could pre vent them from quitting or advising others to quit. The government has offered certain telegrams sent to these defendants; they have proved vio lence, but there has been no testi mony as to connection between tha facts." Judge Woods replied that he thought some of these discussions were gotten up to draw the fire of the court, but the court so far endeavored to prevent the Sre from developing. lie said he had a decision by Justice Harlan on the subject of strikes which he would soon lay be fore them. Mr. Irwin argued that any testimo ny was admissable which would show a mitigation of the offense. The judge replied that he was of the opin ion that evidencejin mitigation would only be allowed in criminal cases. Court then adjourned until to-day. "om)nstd for Coogmi. Bedalu, Mo., Sept. 12..

The druggists and other illegal liqaor dealers who are under bond pending trial in the diatrict court for violating the prohibitory law are making a desperate tHort to have their cases dismissed. 'Ibis is especially true of those who were arrested on evidence furnished by Rev. Charles M. Sheldon and the temper ance league. Rev. Mr. Bheldon said today that he ia being besieged by the frienda of these violators of the prohibitory law beg ging that the prosecutions be dismissed. One druggiat against whom there are Ebout seven counta pending presented a long petition asking that he be allowed to plead guilty on one count and the e ther count against him be dismissed. Thia man told Mr. Sheldon that if the prosecutions againat him were con tinued he would surely be broken u.p in business and said it would kill him if he had to go to jail, lie assured Mr. Sheldon that County At torney Safford was willing to dismiss the cases againat him if Mr. Sheldon and the temperance committee would only con sent Mr. Sheldon says, however, that County Attorney bafford has repeatedly assured him that all cases are to be pros ecuted vigorously without fear or favor. "It is useless," he said, "to attempt to do anything towarda enforcing the law If partiality is shown and some of these cases are dismissed. I believe every case should be prosecuted vigorously. Some cf these men under arrest say they are Santa Fe men who went into the liquor I uainess to make a living after they lost their jobs in the shops. I see no reason why mere should be any discrimination ia favor of any one, but if the temper ance people of Topeka are interested ia tiia matter, they should rally around the committee and lend their encouragement to our efforts." FIl EE ALCOHOL IN THE AilTS Secretary Carlisle In a Quandary Over TtiU Kecondite Subject. Washington, Sept. 12. Great pres sure continues on the secretary of the treasury and the commissioner of in ternal revenue for a decision as to vhether any regulation will be made looking to the enforcement of that clause of the new tariff bill providing for free alcohol for use in the arts and in medical preparations. A com mittee of the National Association of Druggists is at present engaged in the formulation of some tentative regula tions which will be submitted to Secre tary Carlisle Thursday next. Mean time the commissioner of internal revenue is besieged by firms interest ed in the manufacture of medicinal preparations in which alcohol is used, of varnishes and other substances re quiring tlie use of alcohol as a solvent; the distillers of wood alcohol and the distillers of whisky, all of whom have a vital interest in the final decision. From the standpoint of the treasury many millions of revenue are involve ed, as it is claimed, under the free alcohol clause, if it should go into effect, a great portion of the whisky would be in the form of slightly adulterated medicinal prep arations. The general impression among- the officials at the treasury de partment, who are familiar with the situation, is that Secretary Carlisle will be unable to overcome the diffi culties in his path, and fhat without money and means it will be impos sible for him to put the free alcoholic provision of the bill into elfecc until means are provided by congress, and then the ques'ion of repealing the provision would be considered.

A telegram was received at the Japanese legation yesterday morning to the effect that an important treaty Pad been nego tiated between Corea and Japan which authoritatively defines the rela tions of the two countries toward each other and toward China. The object of the treaty is stated in the preamble to be the mutual desire on the part of the Hmperor of Japan and the King of Corea to definitely fix and determine the attitude of each coun try toward the other with a view to clearly elucidating the existing re lations between Japan and Corea which have been created by the re quest which the Corean government lias made to the Japanese government to compel the Chinese to evacuate Corea. To secure concerted action for the more effective accomplish ment of this object the treaty of alli ance between the two countries was signed at Seoul on August 26 by Mr. Otori, the envoy of Japan, and the Corean minister of foreign affairs. The treaty consists of three arti cles. Article 1 detines the object of the alliance to be the strengthening and perpetuating of the independence of Corea as an autonomous state, and the promotion of the mutual interests of Japan and Corea by compelling the Chinese forces to withdraw from Corea and by obliging China to aban don her claim of the right to domin ate the affairs of that country. Article 2 binds the Japanese govern ment to carry on warlike operations against China, both offensive and de fensive; the Corean government is bound by the article to afford the Japanese forces every possible facility in their movements and to furnish them with supplies of provisions at a fair remuneration, so far as such sup plies may be needed. By article 3 it is provided that the treaty shall terminate so soon as a treaty of peace shall have been con cluded by Japan with China. Mr. Kurino, the Japanese minister, talked regarding the new treaty be tween Japan and Corea, "We have nothing but the announcement of the treaty," said he, "but my inference from its terms is that it will prove highly advantageous to Corea. There has existed there, under Chinese aus pices, the most corrupt system of government known. The constant intrigues of China there have been a threat to the peace of the Lust. The Japanese government has desired the settle me ut of this quest on only for the peace of the East. It has been entirely without expectation of terri torial aggrandizement or exercise of suzerainty of Corea." CHINESE JAPAS. An Imperial Ordinance Defining: Tlielr Status in That Country. Washington, Sept. 12. Copies of an imperial ordinance of Japan, defining the status ot Chinese m the empire, which was issued early in Ausrust, have been received at the state de partment. In the light of the recent controversy over the two Japanese e-ubject-i in China who appealed to the United States consul for protection, and were delivered to the Chine.se authorities, the decree is interesting. Chinese subjects, by its terms are authorized to continue to reside in Japan and to engage in lawful occu pations, and areent.tled to protection for themselves and their property, but are made subject to the jurisdic tion of the Japanese courts. They are required to register with the authorities of their provinces within twenty days under penalty of expulsion for refusal to register. For injury to the interests of Japan they are liable to expulsion, besides the usual penalty. Permission to move from one prov.nce. to another must be obtained from the authorities, and the Chinamen cannot enter Japan without such permission. Nothing in the ordinance is to affect the orders of the imperial military to the first clause of the ordinance it appears the Chinese in Japan are under the same jurisdiction as the Japanese in China, namely, of the government in which they are residing.

R. today got down to busiuess. While 230, 00O persons have left the city since the last old soldier passed in review yester day, there are still 20J,0)0 atran iters in town, the majority of whom will fctay until Saturday, while some will stay even longer. Tue national encampment open ed in the new Grand opera house. The election for command ?r in chief will uot be held until tomorrow. Since the withdrawal of Charles D. Long, of Michigan, the opinion is rapidly grow ing that Col. I. N. Walker, of Indiana, will secure the coveted honor. The se lection of the next encampment city ha3 also been deferred until tomorrow. While the surface indications are that Louisville will have a walk-over, it ia hinted that St Paul has been doing good work in a quiet but very effective way. The different auxiliaries of the G. A. R. haviug- recovered from the excitement of yesterday's parade, are also holding their conventions. The Wcm m's Relief Corps, the ladies of the (Jr. A U. and the I)auhtero of Veteraus will discus i seri ous matters. The chiefest will be their official relation to the G. A. It. In aidi tioa they will elect national ofiicers. Great preparations ato boini male for the reception to tho G. A li delegates to be given this evening iu the new Westing house budding at Pittsburg-. Five thousand invitatioua have been used. Tho staff of Captuin Jack Adaci3, the retiring commander-in-chief, presented him last night with a badge studded with diamond'?, combining the pass, com mawler's insignia, the Corps' badge and the Grand Army star. Mrs. Adams was also honored by being elected an honorary member of the staff, the second woman to receive such a com pliment, the wife of General Alger being the first Mr. Adams was also remem bered with a beautiful diamond souv enir. Commander-in-chief John 15. Adamsof the Grind Army of the Republic baid in his address today: "The membership of the order ia as follows: One year sgj there were in good standing 897,2.

A R. has reach ed the beginning of the end and each succeeding year will show a gradual de crease in our membership. "During the year the Grand Army has not forgotten the grrat work of charity and nan expended $293,739. 10 for relief." Referring to the Sons of Veterans, he commends the action of the young men in that organization, and says that "it will carry on our work when we lay it down. I do not lelieva they should be come members of our order in any way and am of the opinion they dj not ask or expect it j. believe the G. A R. should ceate to exist ai:d live only in history when the last comrade is mustered out, but our principles must live forevtr." The speaker replied to the message of the president which stated "that thous ands of neighborhoods had their well known pension frauds." The pension department and the order had hunted down all reported cases. Very few frauds were discovered aad when found, were not cases where soldiers had defrauded the government, but where some dis honest agent had worked a poor ignorant widow, and put the money thus obtained into his pockets. lie complained of the policy of the pension oCice, which he declared had ia violation of intended liberality of the act of June 27, 1S9J, rejected every claim about which there was the slightest doubt, and many d.sabled vete rans though their ciaian had beea proved by reliable witness, had been de prived of ths whola or part of what they are justly entitled to receive. "By act of congress," ha said, "the pension is now made a vested right I have been doing my best to find out what that does for the pensioner. As he is examined, re-examined, reduced and dropped the same as before. I am unable to say what advantage the act ia." The address was accompanied by de tailed reports from all the national ofii cers of the organization. The report of James T. Me3ch, adju tant general, shows a decrease of 400 posts during the past year. Mil. 1IUNLAP ON THE STAND The Kock Island Ottlcial Tastlflea in the Dbs Trial. Chicago, Sept 11.

In 1875 he was appointed vneinber of the governcr's staff and latar served as United States commissioner and as deputy district at torney of San Joaquin county. The game of pelitics fascinated him from early manhood, and when he was nominated for congress in 1882, princi pally because no other man in the dis trict believed a Democrat could defeat Harold T. Page, tho sitting member, who was known as the "invincible, Budd took off his coat and went to work to win. He carried with him a pot of paint and a brush, and it was not long before about every one of nature's bill boards in the congressional district bore the legend: VOTE FOR BUDD. Bndd's novel method of conducting the campaign and hi3 speeches had con siderable effect, and he succeeded in de feating his strong opponent by an over whelming majority. It is said that his congressional campaign was one of the most vigorous and peculiar personal canvassed ever made by a candidate for office. With three such strong leaders as Budd, Estee and Webster in the field, the California campaign will be a very interesting and exciting one. THE FiriST LADY OF JAPAN. Empress Havuko Wears Parisian Gowm aad Is a Very Iiuy Woman. The busiest woman in the Land of the Rising Sun is said to be Empress Ha ruko, wife of his imperial highness Mut euhitc, emperor of Japan. She spends her mornings, like her progressive huu- EMPRESS I1ARCKO. band, in reading domestic and foreign newspapers and in dictating her volu minous correspondence -to her secre taries. She rpaka state calls upon the wives cf the princes and ministers, pays close attention to the female tiemiuaries she has established throughout the em pire, gives grand receptions, makes per sonal visits to the hospitals and takes a prominent part in all charitable work. There is a popular impression that the emperor of Japan has an unlimited number of wives, but this is untrue. He is not a polygamist, and the Em press Haruko is the only wife ho has. She is about a year younger than her husband and is said to be one of the belles of Japan. She is somewhat small er than the average American woman and is very fair and has large, dreamy eyes and a finely formed mouth. She shares the progressive ideas that have made her royal consort's regime so no table in Japanese history and for the past 16 years has dressed in the most approved European style. Her gowns are made in Paris and are the envy of every other society woman in the land of the chrysanthemum. The empress is credited with being very well educated in polite literature and in rausic. She plays the piano well and has written poems that have been set to music and used as national songs by her loyal subjects. She is the founder of the Red Cross society in Japan, and when she visits the hospitals she de ports herself as quietly and unostenta tiously as the most simple white capped nurse. Three grand receptions are given by the emperor and empress every year and naturally are planned and carried out according to the ideas of the em press. The first reception is held on New Year's day and is attended by all the diplomats from America and Europe, The second is the spring reception on bFeb. 2, and the last i held on Nov. 3, wmcn is me emperor s mrtnaay. j.ne empress is very enthusiastic about her work and seems well fitted for the im portant post she occupies as the first lady of Japan. There are more than 2,300 pensioners of the civil war in Indian Territory, ex clusive of Oklahoma, and the amount Lf aid tliitn last yar was $312,000. OUR KAIJSAS- CROPS. Their True Condition in Detail is Told Below BySecretary Coburn of the Board of Agriculture. HALF A WHEAT CROP Was HarvestedrMakin? 2 3,1 G 5, 000 Bushels. Corn Averages G 1-2 Marketable Bushels Per Acre. The following is the crop report of the Kansas Department of Agriculture, for the month ending August 31, 1894, by F. D. Coburn, the secretary: Owing to the disappointing season with reference to nearly all crops, and the wide-spread desire for a conservative statement of actual condition and re sults, especial pains have been taken to discover in every part of the state what they were, and the following is a careful digest and condensation of the varied re turns made by those on the ground. The acreage planted, as given for each crop, is that shown by returns of assessors: Winter Wheat. The area sown to winter wheat was 4.675.704 acres; of this 2,68J,437 or 57.32 per cent waa harvested, making 28,165, tiotl bushels, or a yield of 6,02 bushels per acre on the total sown, or 10.50 on the acreage actually harveted This is 3,531,242 bushels or 14.33 percent greater than the crop of 1893, and within a triliiug fraction of the estimate made by this department in its June report, which indicated 28.320,000 bushels on 2, CCi,l)71 acres likely to be harvested, or 10.62 bushels per acre. Nearly all the counties of largest production rate the quality as "medium," "good" and "very good," the latter predominating. Aiany counties have of course practically none, even for seed, while others have a goodly surplus. Spring: AVlieat. Spring wheat has been a failure gen erally; returns from the counties where it is grown point out that the entire crop will scarcely be more than 50,000 bushels perhaps from 12 to 15 per cent of tho seed sown. Ey. Of rye the acreage was 131,134, and the yield 178,058 bushels, or an average of 7.3 bushels, of quality fairly good. Corn. The severely dry weather prevailing over the larger portion of the state dur ing July and August, proved the previous promising outlook very deceptive, not ulone as to corn but all other crop3. For the present report, correspondents were asked to estimate the corn probabilities on the basis of "reasonably favorable September weather," and the outcome of their statements foretell3 that of the 6.404.705 acres planted, 2,016,849 will produce 41,819.30'J bushels of marketable corn, or 20.73 bushel-s per sere. The av erage yield per acre of marketable corn on the entire area planted is but 6.52 bushels. This does not include the vast quantity of that which is not atrictly merchantable yet of much value and available for feeding purposes. Of the standing corn it is estimated that 3,382, 921 acree, or 52.82 per cent will be cut for its fodder. Oats. The area sown to oats was 1,427.444 acres; the total harvested 857,744, or 69 per' cent Total product, 18,385,949 bushels, or 21.43 bushels per acre on the area harvested and 12.88 bushels on tae area sown. In quality the grain is re ported as considerably better than was believed before harvest mostly medium to very good. Barley. Acres of barley sown, 111,390; yield 722,393 bushels; average per acre, 6.48 bushels, and quality good. Vlax. Flax occupied 127,542 acres and yielded 1,043,418 bushela. or 8.1 bushels per acre. The increase in acreage over the previ ous year was 22,178 acres, or 21 per cent; in' product 281,009 bushels, or 86.85 per cent Hay and Otlier Crops. Hay is a short crop. The yields, aver aging them in those counties where pro duced, will be for timothy about three quarter ton per acre; clover, one ton, and of prairie hay one-half ton. The condition of other crops, includ ing fruit, is about 50 per cent in response to the inquiry as to the acreage of winter wheat likely to be sown the present autumn if season and soil are favorable, the answers indicate a total of 3,595.149 acres, which is less than one year ago by 1,080,555 acres, or 23.11 per cent It is proper to remark that within the ten days since the date when correspon dents closed their reports soaking raina have fallen in not less than four-nfths of the state, reviving the pastures and so softening the ground as to make plowing easy. A result of this is that nearly every team and plow available is being used in that work preparing for the early sowing of either wheat or rye. Where seed can bo obtained much rye is likely to be sown in many locali ties for fall and spring pasturage to sup plement the shortage in other feeds. A CLOGGED POSTOFFICE. Republican Committee Warmed I'p Be cause Their Circulars Don't io. The Republican state central commit tee is having trouble in sending out the mail matter. The committee ia now sending cut a large quantity of circulars, and last Sat urday 1800 stamped circulars were placed in the Topeka postollice. Today they found out that they had not been sent, and the excuse was given that they had not been able to reach them. "We are getting tired of this thing," said C H. Wartin, who superintends the mailing. "Here is matter which we are very anxious to get out to the people and it lays in the postoffice for five days." City Attorney TiUofson, who was at the committee rooms this morning, said it took a latter sent out by the committee two days and a half to reach him. The Daily Stats JoujinaIi print all tke news. Highest of all In Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Hepcrt, i IN THE DISTRICT COURT. A Bnrglary Case Today and a Samber of Other Cases. The district court resumed operations today and "Con" Ryan, the chum and alleged accomplice of Sidney Pickens ia being tried for burglary. The offence was the robbery of Culver Biiley'a hardware store. They gained entrance by making a rope ladder of the awning and by means of it crawlingthrough the transom. They took revolvers and razors valued at about 150. The evidence against Pickens was conclusive and positive. That against Ryan 13 circumstantial. The two young men can be traced together from Topeka by way of Meriden and Oskaloosa to Leavenworth, where they attempted together to sell the booty. Ryan was not arrested there, however, but was captured later at Law rence. Ryan has A. II. Case and Eugene Ila gan to defend him. The trial of this case will occupy most of the day. The jury in the Palmer burglary case came in yesterday without havitig deter mined upon a verdict The jery was un able to agree, standing" about evenly di vided for acquittal and guilty. Palmer's offence was the alleged robbery of the safe at the South Topeka station of the Missouri Pacitic railway. Editor Pope, of the C1I, has hia case of assault set for trial today. It is charged that he drew a revolver on Wr. D. Driver, of the Blackman. The affair was the result of the rivalry between the papers. Mrs. Lucinda Thompson, an old col ored woman, who is charged with prac ticing medicine without the necessary physicians' permit, will be tried tomor row. COLO 11 A DTMIE P U B L I CANS. They Are Likely to Nominate A, W. Meln- tiro for Governor. Denver, Sept 12. The delegates to the Republican state convention were late in assembling today and it was near ly noon before Irving Uowbert chairman of the state central committee, called the convention to order. A committee on credentials was appointed and a recess taken. The indications are that A W. Mcln tire of Alamosa, will receive the nomina tion for governor on the first ballot. The convention reconsidered its decis ion to take a recess, and invited Benators Wolcott and Teller to address it until the committee on credentials and rules were ready to report. Senator Vrolcott denounced the admin istration of Gov. Waite as the cause of the deplorable condition of this state and implored every one to vote with majority party (Republican) this fall in order to redeem the state from misrule. "The plank demanding free coinage of silver," said Senator Wolcott, "is the only thing in the Populist platform which merits the consideration of the voters of Colorado. The Republicans also demand this. When I am certain It cannot be secured through the latter, I am ready and willing to leave it and join any other party which can show me it is able to bring about such a re sult" Senator Teller followed, speaking in the same strain. WORHIXUJliSN STIRRED UP. Because the Sew York Constitutional Convention lias Ignored Them. New Yobk, Sept 12. That the labor leaders of the city are disappointed at the action, or rather the lack of action, taken by the constitutional convention upon the proposition submitted by them is putting it very mildly The amend ments proposed, it will be remembered, were: (1.) Fixing the liability of em ployers' for injury sustained by the em ployees; (2.) Initiative and referendum; (3.) Home rule for cities, and (4.) Chang ing the conspiracy laws. Samuel Gom per, head cf the American Federation of Labor, says: "The convention has done nothing whatever in these matters, but to turn its back on them. There is only one re deeming feature in the whole business, and that is that the convention has done practically nothing in any other direc tion. It is not improper to say that I am greatly disappointed and that the work ingmen of this city generally are disap pointed, but that is about all there ia to 6 ay." WHERE WAS IT HID? The ".State Assembly of the Knights of Labor" in Session Here. It was not generally known that the state assembly of the Knights of Labor had been in session in Topeka two days, but at noon today A C. Baker, member of the state board of pardons, called on all the newspaper men and gave them copies of lengthy resolutions adopted by the state assembly and announced the election of the following officers: A C Baker, Junction City, S. M. W.; Mrs. Eva M. Blackman, Leavenworth, S. W. F., C. H. Barrows, Atchison, S. secre tary and treasury; S. W. Coombs, Mil ford, delegate to G. A; D. E. Barry, Atchison, alternate to G. A; A. C Calla han. Junction City, S. S. The meeting, which was secret, was held at the state house in the rooms of the board cf pardons, and as near aa can be learned there were less than a dozen people present. The lesolutions endorse Governor Lewelling and his famous tramp circu lar, declare in favor of woman suffrage, and endorse A C.

Considering th tumter of participants la the war who have paswed away in the past SO years and the strin gent condition of financial matters ia the country, this ia a wonderful showing.

It can be but a few years however, until it will require the atten dance of all the survivors of tlie war to make much of a sho wing. JlETUR3IXa liOSPPERTTY. That the crisis in the financial ailairs of the country has been parsed and that business is again on the advance, there can no longer be acy doubt. The immense holdings cf currency in the New York banks which at one time reached nearly t90.OJO.000 in excess of the legal requirement is gradually dwindling away. It is now little over $30,000,000. This money ia not goiDg out to be put away in strong boxes and secret hiding places as was the cae last summer, but it is going into the circulation of the country. The eUact of this increase in the circulation is already being felt in business circles. Loans are easy and rates are moderate; stocks of merchan dise are being enlarged, mauufactoriea of every kind that have been idle are resuming work; not nearly so much is heard of large numbers of the people out of employment; prices of grain aad live stock are advaacintf and a better feeling exists in business circles gener ally. There will te' many theories regarding the cause of this change in the situation. The most popular idea will be tha.t it ia the result of a return of coafi iouoe with out citing any cauae for the restored con fidence. But there will be time enough to steady the question in detail and so arrange matters as to prevent a recur rence of last year's panic before another one is due. It is enough at present to know that the tide has turned and every body will be engaged for some time in trying to make pood his losses. Mb.3.

VTell Emvb Wew Torkmra Wlu Excel III Popular Eporta. SpeeiJ CorrpoiMience.J Ksw York. Sept 6. The feats of horsemanship daily performed by Buf falo Bill's aggregation of the world's rough riders excite the wonder and ad miration of thousands of interested on lookers. I know of eix men, however, here in New York who can perforin deccLs equally daring and skillful. They are gentlemen in private life who have never given an exhibition of their prowess eave in the riding academy or bridle path. They are Henry Clausen, eon of the great brewer; "Prinoe Zieg" Tynberg of insurance fame; George Law, the street railway king; Howard Carroll, journalist and steamboat mag nate; John P. Eckhardt, the renowned sportsman, and L. Z. Remington, artist, writer and athlete. For rough, fancy, daredevil riding or driving, the sestet could hold their own with any of Buffalo William's "wild men. The most skillful of the riders are young Henry Clausen and "Prince Zieg" Tynberg. They can put a horse through all -sorts of paces and seemingly obtain complete control over the mental aa well a3 physical attributes of tho animal. This they accomplish by kindness, not by force. Neither believes in whip or spur. They simply "talk" to the horse, pat him on the neck, and, presto! as if by magic, the animal's brain suddenly becomes keenly recep tive, and he understands perfectly what is required of him. Two more of the sestet, John P. Eckhardt and Howard Carroll, are as good cross pountry riders and have as firm a seat and graceful a style aa any of Mr. Cody's German Uhlans, Royal Irish dragoons or French chasseurs. There is no ditch, 6tream, rivulet or brook that tbey would hesitate to go at, no ground rough enough to make them halt, no fence or walk high enough to frighten them from attempting to top. They have had many bad falls, but are never afraid to again defy the lightning. As a driver of four, six or eight horse tallyho George Law stands unequaled hereabouts. No professional or amateur that I have ever seen can beat him. He can give any of Buffalo Bill's drivers of the "Dtadwood" coach cards and spades in the gamo and run away from them. He does not mount a nag much nowadays, however, as he has grown far over the 200 pound limit, and, as he himself puts it, ho "would pull, dov,-n a Liverpool draft horse after an hour's jaunt." Instead of riding he has re course to boxing, in which science he is an adept, to keep in check his increasing GEORGE LAW. corpulency. Ten years ago, however, he would ride across country with any man breathing. lie never knew the meaning of the word fear. He would go up against a live oarrea gate with the same dashing recklessness as he once did against Joe Coburn, the champion pu gilist of America. Fora"wild rider" L. Z. Remington, artist of national fame, cannot be beaten. He can subjugate the fiercest and most viciou3 of stallions with almost as much ease as the celebrated Professor Gleason. That "bucking broncho" has yet to be foaled that can "buck" him off its back. N one of the "wild west cowboys'' can give him any points in the game of holding a broncho. He studied it in the west early in his career and becauio a most expert rider. The quality of fear he never knew, as is evidenced by his daring exploits in the Indian outbreaks in Arizona, New Mexico and other west ern statea Unlike other artists sent out there to take illustrations from tho scene of war, he never kept in the back ground and drew pictured after the fight was over. On tho contrary, ho always went directly to the battle ground and was in the thickest of the fray. Twice he came near meeting his death, but with his usual good luck pulled out safe ly at the last moment. Truly in his case it would seem that "fortune favors the brave. Besides being an accomplished horse man Mr. Remington is a splendid wrestler, clever boxer and good all .around athlete. He is nearly 6 feet tall, weighs over 200 pounds and is almost as strong as Herman Oelricha or Harry BaermeVer. All of the sestet I have spoken of are fair all round athletes. Zieg Tyn-. berg and Johnny Eckhardt indeed are particularly clever at boxing, wrestling and outdoor games generally. All are courageous to their hearts' core, and, what is better, as good aa they are bravo. None of them was ever known to bully a weak man or "take a bluff" from a strong one. Singularly enough, all of them have been remarkably successful in the battle of life. Not one has "gone broke," all cf which would go to show that virtue isits own reward. William Sta-ndish Hates.

The following communication waa sub mitted: Gk.mlimks of the Council: On September 4, 1894, the following resolu tion was adopted by the council: Reeaived, That we hereby earnestly protest against the appointment of Richard Hargravea as sidewalk inspec tor and request the mayor to remove him from this position and appoint by and -rita the consent. of the couucJ. a gyu4. 11 (Successors to Wiggin, Crosby TT it Txx X Tl F T(r7 yard This yard This 75 and 98 Extra value, 50 cents yard. Extra value, 65 and 75 cents yard. 98 cents, $1.25, $1.50, S1.89 per yard Republican to fill this lucrative and re sponsible position. There are several reasons why I cannot permit this resolution to pass unnoticed. The councilman, Mr. Griggs, who pre pared and had thia reeolution adopted, certainly could not have understood the facta. Mr. nargravea was appointed tempor arily to inspect new brick sidewalks being constructed, and also sewer con nections under the directions of the city engineer, who was instructed to report his time for the duties o'. both these po sitions at fifty dollars per month. I take and assume the entire responsibility for his appointment, although it was done after full consultation with the city engi neer and with his hearty approval. The only objection to his appointment that can be inferred from the resolution seems to be a political one. While I am aa strongly partisan as any member of the council can possibly be, I respectfully submit that the council chamber is a place to transact city business for the best intercut of the entire city, and not a place to air political grievances nor to try to make political capital. The objection was orally made that the council had been ignored in making this appointment, and the resolution requires that the appointment be submitted to the council for confirmation. The state statute provides that appointed officers, when confirmed by the council, shall hold for two years. Hence temporary appointments should not be submitted to the council for confirmation, and certain ly the law does not contemplate that be fore making every temporary minor ap pointment the mayor call the council to gether and ask their permission. I am always willing and anxious to consult freely with any and all members of the council upon all subjects relative to city matters, but this resolution makes a public demand for the removal of an employe for political reasons only and i without regard to whether the sarno is for the best interests of the city service or not and also demands that a tempor ary appointment, needed at moat for only two or three months, lie submitted to the council for consideration which under the statute niig'ht give the ap pointee the position for a term of two years. For these reasons I cannot concur in thia rolution. Respectfully submitted, T. W. Hakkison, Mayor. Mr. Pattison introduced ordinance No. 1847, being "an ordinance to authorize the mayor and city clerk to issue war rants to pay John Ritchie for sidewalks constructed in 1894," which whs read the first time. On motion of Mr. Holman rule 18 was suspended by the unanimous vi.te of the council. The ordinance was then read and considered by sections, and on separate motions section one and two were adopted.

Mrs. Etta Sem ple, now president of the Kansas Free Thought association, is rec ognizedly a bright woman, and as is often the case her brightness is not without a tinge of bitter sarcasm that will rise to the surface when her feelings of indigna tion get the better of her. At the meeting of the association Sat urday night the subject of securing the release of the Leavenworth man, Van derberg, from the county jail, was dis cussed. Mrs. Semple was intensely in terested and intensely indignant After the discussion had takeu up the better part of the evening, and Mrs. bemple's disgust was reaching boiling point, Mr. Harmon arose and suggest 1 that some one introduce a set of resolu tions that could be published condemning the action the authorities had taken in the matter. There was no response for a moment, and then Mrs. Semple advanced to the front of the platform. Her air was decisive and her voice steaiy ami quiet. "Mr. Chairman," she said, and every one was listening, "I move you that in this, our hour of need and afS.ction, we do resignedly bow our heads to tae inev itable, feeling that Almighty God Who eiVoth all things for the best and Who, in H'is supreme wislom and infla.te mercy permits us to live under so just and so mei-ciful a government, and Who takes care of the lame and the halt and tha blind, w-ill in His own good time re war i this aiA-ffarer and punish his tormentors."

Resolved, second, That we tender to Mrs. Waisbrooker our earnest sympathy, and that we agree and promise to do all we can as individuals and as an organi zation, to sustain and help her in the grand work of human enlightenment and human emancipation, to which work she has so unselfishly devoted her life.

In Another Dri the I'fnill 3ry O nnmbet Use Coller Oraiiuatei. Tho report c Mr. Secretary Dewer to the board of tegenta of the rmiversdty contains a great deal of information re garding the rrogreis of tke secondiry and higher edneatien in th3 Empire State. Of epacial interest is the light thrown on the position occupied by New York aiaong American cotnm nw alths with respect to tho facilities afforded for the academical, collegiate and pro fession al instruction of women. It appears from the statistics coll-3ct-ed by Mr. Dewey that there were last year in the secondary schools of this stato 23,559 girls of acadeiaio grade and only 18,243 boys. Of 43S honor credentials Issued, 2S8, or nore t'.ian two-thirds, warts gained by fril ls. In our collages the number of wort en gradu ates roso to 2.92S, one being reported from Columbia, 83 irora tho city uni versity, 761 from the coeducation col leges and 3,078 from theeiht women's colleges. In the professional and tech nical schools there were 4,043 women, including eight in law schools and 216 in medical schools. The Universalist eerninary at Canton reports three fe male students in theology. By the so called special schools 3, 803 women wero returned. Of these, 2,72t are credited to Pratt institute, 2o0 to the Teachers' college, 1S3 to tho State Normal college, 308 to the Woman's Art school, 193 to the Grand Conservatory of Mtisio and 121 to the Cooper Union night schools. So far as the United States aro con cerned, Now York has alway-s held the first placo in woman's education. In deed the Albany Female acadt-iny claims to bo tho first instiutioii for the higher education of women ever founded in tho world. This is no doubt true as re gards ettabliishroorits exclusively design ed for the f"ma!c sex, but it must be remembered that in the middlo ayes women were permitted not only to study but to teach in Italian universities. An early and wall known rival of the Albany institution was ZMids Emma V7il lard's school at Tr ;y. It ia tho boast of Elmira college that its charter of April 13, lo-j, made it tho first derr conft-rrkijr colic je solely for women, whilo Vassal-, which started with a generous erdowiaent on Jan. IS, 1SC1, immediately acquired a recog nized leadership as th- first of the great establishments for the hijrhcr instruc tion of women. Thus it appears that all four claimants to the honor of first hav ing done effective work on a largo s-calo for woman's education are Xc w York in stitutions. Another tact is worth record ing: Although New York rej'orts six colleges for women and four for coedu cation, only Vassar, Cornell and Syra cuse are included in tho i;ational asso ciation, yet th'.'so threo r.loue furnish aCour 40 por cent of tho list of women holding degrees from recognized col leges. Teaching is still tho favorite profes sion of highly educate'', women. Ac cording to the census of lH'.'O, there were in the whole Union 125,50r men and 233,397 women teachers. Of the teach ers in the New York common schools 2G,SGl ara women. Bat woman's teach ing is no longer limited to primary grades. She has steadily won her way through grammar schools, high schools and college?, to chairs in universities. It thould not bo inferred, however, that ,1 majority of the graduates of ft male col leges are animate i with the purpose of pursuing any professional calling. The remarkable development attained of late years by New York institutions for tho higher education of women is due to a widespread recogn ition of the fact that a collogo course wisely plai-ineel tuid in dustriously followed affords tho best preparation for the intelligent discharge of the functions of wifehood and moth erhood and the duties of home life. Tho movement to which we have hero referred is increasing at a surprising rate. The number of girls in this state who entered college last year from schools t-upervised by the board of re gents was 4 per cent pre iter than it was the year before, and the number of those now preparing to enter will show, as we aro informed, a similar augmen tation. The best colleges for women are far from being able to receive all the qualified applicants. New colleges aro continually being founded, and, what will prove of even more utility, the ol 1 er colleges and universities are rapidly cpenih,' to women their facilities for in struction. In American colleges gener ally the proportion of female students is considerably larger than it was even a few years ago. For instance, the at tendance of women at the University of Michigan roso Ixst year from 33 per cent to 37 jer cent. The author of this report espressos the belief that early in tho next century our colhges will grad uate more women than men, just as the academies do now. New- York Sun. LaJy Jenne. The name of Eady Jeune is almost as familiar on this side of tho water as iu England, where her practical philan thropy in behalf cf the tenement waif has given her fame in all classes. Her country holiduy fund is similar to our various fresh air schemes, and she is better known perhaps in connection with that enterprise than as a clever writer on many social tttpies. She was born a Mackenzie, is a sister of Lady Tweeddale, first cousin to the present Earl of Galloway, has been twice mar ried, antl, h-.st, but by no means ltast, is a great friend of Mr. Eabouchere of Truth, who uses his journal often iu be half of Lady Jeune's little proteges. The Door Only Ajar. Mrs. Nettie Ransford in The Eastern Star says: We are told that the door" is open for woman in any direction she may wish to ente r, and the statement is accepted aa correct, but "proof of the pudding is in thei eating," and she has but to try for admission to learn that insteatl f standing wido open it is just ajar, and it will require perseverance and a steady push to open it suf: iciently wide to allow her to pass beyond the threshold.

Valuable Curative I'ropertiei Tiiat "Medical ?.len Are Slow to Itealizc. An eminent surgeon has been experi men ting upon certain classes of wounds and in surgical operations, with a view to testing the efficacy of heat as aa an li.septic. One of his methoels is to touch the exposed surface with bits of absorb ent cotton dipped in boiling water. ITa finds that tho healing process is greatly facilitated by this application, and that, too, without the cumbersome and ex pensive apparatus necessary for orelina ry chemical antiseptics. Attention is also called to the im portance of properly cleansing all in struments used for any put pose whatso ever. It is not enough that they be dip ped in some antiseptic solution and wirjod with a bit of cotton waste, as is too frften tho case. It is recommended that a vessel of boiling water bo kept at hand and that all instruments be put in this antl allowed to remain until thor oughly heated. The water mu..t be kept at boiling heat by means of an alcohol or other lamp, else there is no use of dipping the instruments at all. There is too much carelessness in the cleaning of all such appliances, and many deaths are unquestionably traceable to this cause. There is quite too little attention given to the curative properties of heat. Tho subject ban begun to attract the no tice of pome of the more; advanced thinkers of medical men. If is ute hireel that a high degree of heat i.-: of great value whe-n a disease is to ba brought to a crisis. One author asserts that ob stinate ulcers even of longstanding and wounds that refuse to heal may bo brought into active conditions and speedily made healthy by packing the affected parts with hot water bottles or bags. Over tiie immediate open surface a pael of lint made slightly elamp with glycerin and wafer is placed. This must be constantly watched and renewed as often as it becomes filled with the dis charged matter, which it speedily takes up. Tho heat induces activity and in creases circulation, and the pad takes up the poisonous emanations as they ac cumulate. It is a positively demonstrated fact that intense heat steadily applieel will break up any case of pneumonia in the earlier cr middle stages, and there are many who do not believe that a fatal termination to this disease is at all nec essary unless there are other complica tions. Simple dry heat is too easy of application and too unscientific for the ordinary medical man. It will there fore probably never be possible to make this a favorite form of treatment. New York Ledger. Knew More of Mines Than of AVeddinfrs. Coolgardie, the new goldfield district in Western Australia, though situated in the rnidet of an almost waterless des ert, is rr.pidiy becoming civilized. It has a newspaper, the first issue of which lies before us. In it we note an account of "Coolgardie's first wedding. The man who tioes the description for The Miner th&t is the name of the paper is evidently new to the business. He knows much about mines, but not much about weddings and still less about a lady's attire. The bride, we aro told, wore a "rich, creamy, quartz colored silk, with orange blossom outcrops. One lady was dret-sed "in a reddish sub stance, with iron stone colored leaders running round the main body. An other was "from peg to peg arrayed in a slate colored materi?1, relieved at the throat by a white quarrzite sort of band." And so on throughout half a column. London Globe. The Ace of the Xile. The Nile valley is now receiving a Kood deal of attention from geologists. At a recent meeting of the London Geo logical society Captain H. G. Lyon of the royal engineers read a paper in which he maintained that it was carved out by tho river in the mifne period. The course of the river above Cairo seems to have been tleteriiiined by a great fault, which follows the valley for many miles upward. Captain Lyon re gards all the sandstone of the Nubian region as an estuarine deposit formed on an area afterward gratlually invaeled by the cretaceous sea. A series of folds runs through this betl of sandstone, and along them occur many springs of thv oases, tho water bearing beds being brought by them nearer to the surface. Artlflcial Silk. The process of producing "artificial silk" has been invented by Dr. Lehner. Waste cotton, wool, juto or other suita ble material is reduced to an emulsion by means of a mixture of nitric and sul phuric acids, when it is formed into threads by forcing it through glass tubes of email bore and is passeei over a series of rollers and wound in the orelinary way on bobbins. Before the artificial silk is used in manufactures or is sold it is denitrated to destroy the explosive Xiroperties and is also rendered unin flammable, which will render it suita ble for many purposc-s, especially as it is said to resemble real silk very close ly. According to some writers, the silk worm has had "notice to leave. Eng lish Mechanio. An 2nrenioi:s Ievi:e. Ail ingenious device is tho invention of C. W. Hunt, an American engineer. It is a mass of hard steel balls of two sizes, one-eighth antl one-fourth of an inch in diameter respectively. Under pressure thin mass moves and transmits pressure in all dirf.ctiuiis like a fluid. Tiie device is calculated for use wher ever fluid pressure is desired without leakage, and it has already been em ployed for tightening the brasses of con necting rods, a pocket at the side being filled with the balls and pressure ap plied with a set screw.

Woe is a regular fatl with some wo men anyway, I know a charming sreatui-e who is never content unless he is miserable. Shs will go miles Tor a grievance, and failing a defined iorrow of her own, she will, with most maternal tenderness, adopt and levelop the grief of somebody else. Apropos of the above, there are wo xien who, if offered the choiee be tween a matinee and a funeral, will poll a tremendous vote in favor of tho fuuerab The dramatic opportunity s only a negative pleasure the trap oiugs of woe is a positive sensation. There is a story told of a rood though jeeentric dame, long since gathered to her accounting, in whom this pas sion was abnormally developed, who irrived in town from her country place one day on a shopping sxpedition. This lady learned af the death of a mere acquaintance ind learned that if she hurried to the house she would be just in time for the funeral services. Shop ping as compared with mourning had i no charms, and tho lady hastened to the house of sorrow. 2iov the con stant traveling companion of tjiis food woman was a brown linen trocity in the nature of a handbag Dr roll. Upon this bag, embroidered in large letters by the misguided per son from whom it was a gift, was a motto. Arrived at the house oar friend insisted upon having a se it as near the casket as was possible, and, that achieved, she placed the brown linen structure across her lap., the letters out for all the world to see, then settled herself with a sigh of satisfaction. The letters upon the bag, held within a few feet of the Jeceaseel lady and visible to all the mourners, spelled the words,, "Bon voyage. THE INDIAN'S PAY DAY. R'beu Uncle Sam' Money la on Hand 1'oor I.o llecomes Kecklem. "I happened to be at a mission in Idaho a few years ago," said a trav ?ler, "when two government officials irrived with funds with which to pay L,he Indians for lauel which had b'jen oought from them by the United States. Each Indian received a check for the amount due him, several thou sand dollars being distributed in this way among them. The town where the checks were to be eashed was ten niles from the mission, and by day break the following morning a large irowd of Indians had collected in front of the bank, waiting to receive their money. At 9 o'clock the doors af the bank were opeueel and the In iians march I in. presented their ;hecks and reeeiveel and counted their money. They would not take bills, but demanded that they be paid in jold and silver, which was done. "As soon as they got the coin they started out to spend it. The chief desire of the men was fast horses, and the dealers took advantage of this and reaped a rich harvest. All day long men could be seen trotting fast horses up and down the street to at tract the attention of the Indians, who immediately paid the price asked by the owners if the animals pleased their fancy. Wagons and farm imple ments were also in great demand. Dne dealer told me afterwards that he sold So. 000 worth of agricultural implements that day. The squaws llso received a portion of the money, ind they hurried to the stores, where they bought bright-colored dress snoods, shoes, hats and sweetmeats for their children. Some of the prices paid were enormous. One young squaw paid SIS for a pair of kid shoes, SL'O for a black lace hat trimmed with bright flowers and S3 for chewing 5'uai."

And tli Vonu g Man loiind Oat tlxo Value of Sach a Itolati ve. A young- man employe! at the Cin cinnati court house found liitELself ia mil embarassing- po&itioa the other nig-ht, He h.ad an engagement to take a con pie of young- ladies to one of the theaters, and in donning- his best 6uit forg-ot his poeketbook, which peacefully reposed in his every day clothes. When he boarded a street carand the conductor demanded fare he became painfully aware of hLs pleasant situation. lie manag-ed to find a dime and street car ticket in his clothes and this afforded tempo rary relief. But the young- ladies were new acquaintances and he could not well explain the situation and se cure a temporary loan. Besides, young ladies hardly ever carry pocket books, for such emergencies. And he in vain looked around for a friend who would accommodate him. When the postofUce was reached a novel idea struck him. "We'll take another car here," he said. "I prom ised to mail two important letters for my sister, and she'll never forgive me if I neglect the matter." So they got, off the ear and the young- man dashed into the postoffice and on to the near est pawnshop. He carried a g-old watch and soon had a loan on it, borrowing- a cheaper watch to wear until he redeemed his own time-piece. Then he hurried back, and as the young- ladies were patiently -waiting-he did not tell them about any trouble to g-et stamps. The young- ladies thanked him for a very pleasant even ing on their return, but they will not know everything- until they read this. The watch was, of course, redeemed the next dav. ILL-MANNERED DOWAGERS. All Encllshman'i Lament Over Scenes Common tn London Ballrooms. A writer in an English newspaper has uttered a wail concerning- tlie de generacy of the atre, says the New York Sun, and cites examples of the great falling- off in manners in what are g-enerally called in Great Britain the upper circles to prove it. If half he says is true he makes out a very g-ood case. He asserts that in London ballrooms one finds the chaperons, ladies often of mature years, struggling- for seats like so many football men in a scramble. He objects to what he calls "their calm insolence and their tricks and devices to g-et the better of one another." lie alleges that a couple of dowagers will, when seated on each side of a third, talk across her for an hour or more so eagerly that their chins almost meet in front of the sufferer. Dowagers have offended him seriously. The critia notices the recent stringent rules at the queen's drawing--rooms, and says that they were necessary. Nothing- milder, in his opinion, would chck the crowding- and pushing- which have now converted the scene of a great state ceremonial into a lively bear garden. Then there is the ill mannered chatter with which oc cupants of stalls and boxes at the theater interrupt the performance. This censor of public manners finds that the most hopeless feature is the behavior of the rising- g-eneration. SKILLED IN SOFT PHRASES. The Honest Tramp Wbo Had Never Seen Better Iays. The tramp, whom the lady of the house had admitted to the kitchen table and was giving a dinner of her own cooking-, was such a pleasant looking- fellow that she became quite interested in him. After busying about awhile she ventured into con versation. "You have not always been in this business, have you?'' she asked. "No, madam," he replied briefly. "Ah, I thought so. You have seen better days, then?" He looked at the fine piecs of pie and big- glass of cold milk she set down on the table for him to finish on, and laid down his knife and fork. "If you mean by better days, madam," he said, "that I have not always been a tramp, I will reply, 'Yes,' but if you mean by better days that I have ever had pleasanter sur roundings than the present, or that I have surrounded pleasanter things," and he blushed, "I will say emphat ically that I have not," and the good woman was so pleased that she almost wanted to take him as a permanent boarder. Beei In the Mammoth Cave. "Mammoth cave in Kentucky is getting- to be a g-igaatic bee hive," sa!d A. ii. Lewis "The last time I went through this big- hole in the ground I took both the long- and short routes, as they are called by tha g-uides. At several places there were rather too many bees for me to feel entirely comfortable, although I was not at tacked by any of them. If the cave should be explored for honey some rich finds would undoubtedly be made. The bees are increasing- con stantly. In fact, while I have visited the cave frequently for several years, it has only been about two years since I knew that they were there, and this year it would be impossible for a vis itor not to know it." A Mnsical Dinner Service. By way of a London paper it is learned that an American woman has lately received what must be termed the most original of wedding- presents. It is a musical dinner pervice of which each plate begins to ptTy a tune when put upon the table. The soup plates are accredited with marches as su it-ing- the temper of the guests at t'nat moment of solemnity, but as the din ner proeresses and the wine and courses do their enlivening work, the harmonies brig-hten according!' till at dessert the covers are ringin g ou the uiad.de st of polkas and galops. his Uncle helped THEY WERE USEFUL. Bat Hardly Complimentary to the Lady's Skill as a Hlsonlt- Bolide r. The tramp rounded up at the Stitahen door and found the lady of the house washing- dishes. She was n the first six mouths of matrimony nd housekeeping-, and she was learn-.ng- how to save money for her hus band and get the house paid for quick. "Good morning-, lady," remarked the tramp, as if he had visited the lo sality at some previous period, though he didn't think of it till he saw her. "Good morning, she responded, almost with a twitter, she was feel ing so pleasauL "I suppose you want something- to eat this morning-. "I wouldn't object, lady. "You remember when you were here two weeks ag-o I g-ave you a hatful of biscuits that I made myself, don't you?" He had already forg-otten, but all of a sudden he remembered, and remem bered very distinctly. "Oh, yes, lidy," he said with a gasp, "I remember, and I came back this morning- for some more just like them." "Oh, I'm so glad," she chattered, as she dropped the dishes and wiped her hands on her apron. "I've jot a whole lot more that you can have. Just wait till I bring them." "Yes," he continued, but with an evident intention of not waiting-, "yes, I'd like to have some more of the same heft. They were the finest things to throw at dogs I ever come across. I guess I must have killed a dozen dogs with that lot you give me. Just the right size and shape to throw welL Go ahead. I'll wait tiU you come back." But he did not wait. THREE OP A KIND. And They Were Suffering; Ones at That, and All Oat of Temper. There wa3 a man g-oing- up tho east side of the street aa another man was coming down on the west side on the same block. Both had their heads down and looked mad. As they came opposite they halted and looked at each other, and pretty soon the east side man growled out: "I can punch your blamed head in just one minute." "And I can knock yours oft in a minute," replied the other. "Don't stand there looking" at half me, but go on." "I'll go on when I get ready.' Just then a policeman came out Of the alley and took in the situation and asked: "Now, then, what's the matter here?" "Why," said the east side man, "I was coming- along here with the tooth ache and that g-aloot looked at me so mean that I was just g-oing- to punch his head." "And I was coming- alonsr with a splitting- old headache," added the other, "and that feller stuck out his tongue and come near being- smashed for it." "Gentlemen," said the officer, as he spat on his hand and drew his club, "Ive got three corns on my right foot and four on the left, and all are ach ing like sixty miles an hour. If you both don't git up'n fly, I'll run you in and swear you up for three months." A PRESIDENT-TO-BE. He Covered Himself With Glory In the Class- Room. Once durinjy the school-days of the new president of the French republic, his professor in g-eoraphy asked him: "Perier, give us the exact position and indicate the latitude of the Gam bier group." Gasimir-Perier crossed his arms tightly upon his chest, look ing very perplexed. One of his neigh bors whispered to him a wrong- an swer; whereupon the professor gave him the exact posiition of this little group, which belongs to the more im portant French establishment of Ta hiti, and, after a short pause, and with a little point of irony, said: "You ought to know that, Perier, because it is thanks to your grandfather that Franco acquired the ascendency in these parts of the world; it was through his efforts and entreaties that the dusky queen of these islands was induced to come to France; and the men of my g-eneration still remember the comical songs which celebrated the event." Perier blushed consider ably; but, holding- his head still hig-tier, answered the professor with his quick and peculiar diction: "I will most certainly go over this lesson again and try to b-e more proficient at the next lecture; but, so far as the deeds of my grandfather g-o, they are so numerous that I am not old enough yet to know them all." The Japaiieis Navy. American interest naturally at taches to the Japanese navy from the fact that her first armed ship of mod ern design was an American vessel, and her 'first admiral was an Ameri can officer. The vessel was the latn Stonewall, which was captured from I the Confederates while at Havana, and in 1803 was sold to Japan and j taken to Yokohama by way of the straits od Magellan, in charge of Cap tain George Brown, U. S. N. The first Japanese admiral was Walter Grinnell, who was appointed to that office while ensig-n in the United States- navy stationed at Hiogo. No Female Voices. In the choir of St. Peter's Rome, there is not a female voice; and yet, says a recent most difficult music written manner as to traveler in Italy, the oratorios and sacred are rendered in such a make one think that Adelina Patti's high soprano is leading-. The choir is composed of sixty boys. They are trained for the work from the time they g-et control ol their vocal chords, and some of the best singers are not over nine years old. At the age of seventeen they are dropped from the choir. SHE NEVER WOULD. EH Emw Sis Wol4 Ct Over the Shock of IXr MlstaJt. She vrrui the most popular g-irl in the summer hotel, and when two cf tho other came into her room and found her dissolved In tears they proffered sympathy at. once. "Has your father tens for you?" cried the girl witn fier hair looped over her car. 'Charity has goas oil on tho train t" cried the girl -with the penciled brows in a tragic- tone. "No no much worse!" "You surely never lost that lovely hat overboard -while you were boating t" "Or let Jennie get the strango young man seated next hur at table? "Oh, girls, it'a much -worse than any thing. 1 think I'll go Into a convent. .Everybody will be talking about It. Prom ise never 10 breathe it, and I'll tell you all about it." "Wo never will." 'Well, you know that lovely new young; man?" "No, but I mean to." "Oh, It's about hliu! Maine and I have been just crazy to know him. His room la j ufit under ours, and we hear him sink ing in a lovely baritone." "Well, Fred knows him, and he'll Intro duce" "Never! It was. this way: I was asking Fred about him, and he told me that he wanted to know me; that he eald thoe little baby curls about my forehciad were lovely, so natural. Theu we saw Lim coming, and F red olXered to present him at once. "Of course you agreed." "If I only had. But I told Fred that I must speak to one of the girls first. Then I flew up stairs. When I got there, I taw at once that Alamo had had one of her ti dying fits, for I couldn't Cud what I want ed. Yuu see, my hair was a little out of curl." "Of course." "Just then I heard Mame coming, and I said crossly: 'I wish you'd tell me where on earth you've put my curling iron." There was no reply, bo I repeated my que ry in a still croseer tone." "Mame is so provoking!" "Listen: "1 I think there must be some mistake,' said a rather faint, masculine voice. And, girls, there he was standing just inside the door." "My good net,.!" "I just stamped my foot. 'There la o mistake!' I cried. 'You're In tho wrong room, and I'll thank you to got out,' and I advanced, brush in hand. He fled, and I locked and double locked the door. Then I sank on the floor in a heap and cried. I couldn't forgive him for making such a silly mistake. Suddenly something struck mo us strange" "You surely hadn't" 'I just had. Tn ray haste I had miwd a flight of stairs, and I had driven the man out of his own room. Oh, I'll never Ktt over it if I live to be 100!" Chicago Tribune. Ills Doubt Dispelled. One afternoon Air. B. 's man of all work came to him and requested to have the evening oft to go to a wedding. The re quest was granted, and nothing more was seen of Thomas until the next morning, when he appeared In a decidedly used up condition. One eyo was black, his nose jammed In, and strips of court plaster adorned his face in every conceivable di rection. "For heaven's sake, Thomas," exclaim ed Mr. U. upon catching sight of him, "what have you been up to? I thought I gavo you permission to go to a wedding." "And so youso did, sor." 'Well, did you go?" "Shuro I wint, and when I got to the house I found a folley sittiDg in the par lor. He wai dressed up in foine shape wid a long tailed coat and a white neck tie. Soz I to him, 'And who may yess be?'

Hamilton hall was crowdei last night Every available nook was tilled with peo ple anxious to hear Topeka's congress man, Charles Curtis, and hundreds came who could not even secure standing room and were compelled to go home. Senator Peffer was in the auiience and listened intently to the entire speech. The speechmaking was preceded by a showy display of 2l(0 tlambt-au men on Kansas avenue. M. C Ilolaian introduced Mr. Curtis, who first thanked his friends in Shaw nee county for their interest in his be half and their confidence displayed in him. He said that the proudest day of his life was when he returned to Topeka and waa tendered a reception that any man might be proud of. Turning to his subject, Mr. Curtis said: "Congress did one good thing it ad journed, laughter but it didn't adjourn quick enough. Tne magnificent crowds that turn out everywhere indicate that Kansas will be redeemed. Applause. "1 came here tonight to show you what the Populists are trying to do, Every bill introduced by Kansas con gressmen is for the issue of irre leemable paper money and they attempt to tell the people that they are in favor of free coin age of gold and silver. If I do not tell the truth I ask anyone to call me down, just as I have those in the house who dared to slander Kansas, the beat state in the Union. "Tho tirst bill I will refer to is a bill introduced by Senator Peffer hia land and loan bill No. 97C. They try to make you believe they are opposed to the mort gages, and still that bill exempted mort gages and mechanics' liens from taxa tion. "The next bill I will call your atten tion to is house bill Xo. 7570, introduced by Baker, by request, and I understand lie has since repudiated it, and well he might, for his people will repudiate him. It provided for twelve bankers generals at the small salaty of $10,000 a year, and they were to be retired at tho end of six years at $5,000 a year. His bill "o. C011 provided for the issuance of if 300,000,000 of paper money. The next bill intro duced by Davis was for the relief of mortgaged debtors, and provided that a mas could take his abstract to the regis ter of deeds and have it certified to and then they could send it to the treasurer of the United States, have money ad vanced and then have twenty years to pay it at 1 per cent. Laughter. "Senator Feller's bill. No. iiSS, provided for tho issuance of $0OO,uOO.OU J of de claratory money. His bill, No. 505, pro vided for the issuance of $250,1 00,uuO. "There is a man who represents or rather misrepresents a part of Kansas, named Davis. He introduced a bill. No. 67G7, to organize an industrial army of 500,000 men, and they were to be given work by the government. If the Repub licans are returned to power vou will hear no more about Coxey or industrial armies. "Now listen to this. This is the best j one of all. Bill No. 1050, entitled 'For the employment of labor and the pros perity of the people,' aui it provides for an issue of $0, 000,000,0; j0 of paper money, which is within $4,o00,000,0o0 as much money as there is in tho entire world. His bill. No. 1177, provides tor the issu ing of ?3.50 in treasury notes for every dollar of gold and silver now in circula tion. "Hudion'a bill No. 10S3, and Feller's, No. 2020, is entitled: 'For the free coin age of silver,' but it is intended to de ceive the people. The bill really pro vides for the payment out of all goid and silver now held ty the government to redeem bonis an i to ituo paper money to pay the reft of tho bonds and other debrs of the govern ment, and the l-ill shows the hostility of the Populists to our form of government by providing for the repeal of all tariff and revenue laws. 'The bills which were introduced by the Populists 77,000.000,000 call for the issuing of of money by the govern does not include the lulls make specitic appropria- merit, but this which do tio:;s. not 'Those people show where they it&nd on the silver question. I say that there j is not a Populist member of congress I who is :i favor of the free coinage of silver, iiere is a bill introduced by Jerry I Simpson which provides for the domoie- j tization of both gold and silver. II-re j is the oin ana you can see it lor your selves. "Here is a bill introduced by Senator Peilor iu 1832 which prohibits toe freo coinage of gold, and still they s ay they are in favor of free coinage of silver. "In Jerry Simpson's spt-ech, whica ap pears in the Record of February 25, 15 b-l, he says: 'I am one of those ol i lsat green back lunatics you ued to hear about' That is tho kin 1 of peoplo ho sy they are for free silver. He also said th.it we needed a new declaration of indepen dence. If tha laws don't suit him, he earns or I don't mean that ho earns it enough in oc month to go back to Canada. (Applause.) "They pretend to oe running a candi date for congress io this district on a platform with only one national issue in it and that is the silver plank aud he doesn't believe iu that. "The position of the Republicans is well known. When they are rstorsd to power, silver will be restored ti its plice as a metal money. I voted for the seigtior age bill and was criticised for it. but I would do it again if 1 had the oppor tunity. I would rather the seignorage which belongs to the people should be coined than the bonds be issued. I do not favor issuing bonds in time of peace." Mr. Curtis said that all toe Populists together only seenred the passuga of two bills while he secured the passage of rive. "My bill to consolidate the prts would have saved the people f 97,00 a year if it had become a law'' he said. Continuing' Mr. Curtis said: "I showed my friendship for the working people by introducing a bill woich would. keep out all pauper and contract labor. The work ing men must be protected a jamst crimi nal, contract labor and anarchiits, I ap peared before the committee on immi gration in behalf of the bilL They ask ed why I was interested ai the people were oing out of the country. 1 saidj this is just the time to pass such a bilL Get them out and then keep them out. "A bill came up in the houie to exclude aoarchists from this country and ther were some mn in th house who dared to object to it, but I am jrlad to say no Republicaa ever did. "I dssire to thank en Populist for vot ing in the interests of the people. They could not shove th Wilton bill dowa the throat of Senator PeUer because it i3 against the interests ot the people, and wha thoy fixed up that sugar coatd pill, he refused to take it There it another man from Kansas in the senate who holds his seat by grand larceny. I mean "Our John," (applause) who voted for the bill and all the Populists in the house voted for it, except Jerry Simpson, who was sick, but Lafe Pence who was spokesman for the Populists said Simp son would have voted for the till. "There is not a Democrat or Republi can in Kansss who is not in favor of free sugar. When you go to the store and pay an extra price for every pound of sugar you buy, swear a little at the Pop ulist congressmen who helped put the extra price on it." Mr. Curtis then addressed himself to the colored men. He said the Populists were holding out a hand to them and he wanted to call their attention to the Con gressional Record of October 11, when the Populists had a chance to show their friendship for the colored man. "When the federal election law came up your friends fell over themselves to vote to take away every protection for the colored man," said he. "If they say they are your friends, take them by the throat and ask them why they voted for the repeal of the federal election law. "I don't believe there are as many col ored men in Kansas as I can count on the Sogers of one hand who will join the party which tickles them uuder the chiu and then votes against them. "I want to say a few words to old sol diers. The Populist national platform says not a word for you who left wife and children to defend the flag. They say that in the state platform they say what they believe. Cowards, why did they do it? Because there are 56,000 old soldiers who vote in Kansas. "I believe I have been the friend of the old soldier (voices that's right). There is not a word in the platform of the man who is running for congress in the Fourth district. No one knows how he stands on the pension question. 'Since the 1st day of August, 1S93, I hava gone to the pension office every day but one day when they changed the files and one week when I was here, I never met a Populist there.but once that shows how they are attending to the old soldiers." Mr. Curtis said that after next March -Senator Martin's friends will forget that he ever was in the senate and drew a salary. "lie will not forget it but he will miss the salary" said he. He said he expected to be elected by 5,000 majority. Political "otea.
